Thanks! I really wanted to do a video of this one. I think this weekend is the weekend to start videos.

Very pretty and unique.

This soap looks great!! It is a great representation of the Japanese Cherry Blossom in regards to the beautiful colors!!!! Awesome job

Wow, this is a beautiful soap! I need to get some black also. Where do people usually activated charcoal for their blacks? I am debating trying a black mica instead of the charcoal, but want to have the option open. I also have to wait until I have money again...:sad:

Well. Did your packages come yet?

 

[Badger]

Yes, Mel, my packages came, I am presently waiting for my lye water to cool to RT. It is almost there. I meant to use distilled water and forgot and used tap water instead, but I am not too worried about it. I managed to make a nice mess with my oils, lol I want to mix my soap and wish I could do more with colors and stuff with this batch, but I am behaving

I think Bramble Berry sells activated charcoal, too. Lots of suppliers probably do, but I haven't bought it.

 

[Badger]

Thank you, dana, I will check out Bramble Berry. I am likely going to go with some micas instead, but wanted to see what my options are and what I could afford.

Pretty soap Does your version of Japanese Cherry Blossom have any vanilla in it? Mine does and I am going to use it for the first time. I'm just wondering if yours does have any vanilla content if it discolored at all. I tried looking it up on the BrambleBerry site but it wasn't listed.

Dana that is incredible! Going to try this once my supplies get here, not an expert at this swirl but I love seeing all the techniques.

 

[WallFlower]

GORGEOUS soap! Wow! Great job!

 

[hlee]

Wow!

Japanese Cherry Blossom..

Dana, I think these are the prettiest swirls that I have ever seen. Your colors and swirl design matches the name to a T. I love what you with these bars...incredible. I kept looking at the design and all of a sudden I see a humming bird...to pretty to use. You'll have to save a few anyway.

Thanks so much Wallflower, hlee, Ruby, and Jerry. I really appreciate it.

AngelMomma, mine didn't say it had vanilla, and I haven't seen any discoloration, so I am guessing it doesn't. The one I used is BB's: http://www.brambleberry.com/Cherry-Blossom-Fragrance-Oil-P4986.aspx

The one I got only has 10%. I used all the FO I had last night and this am, so we will see.......
